[Dessert Theory]: Gelato

What is the difference between gelato and ice cream?

It's a question that probably commonly pops into our minds here and there at least once.  I know for sure that it was a question that I've thought about and couldn't figure out, but I knew there MUST have been something different about gelato that distinguished it from ordinary ice cream. 
Read on to find out what makes it so unique.

Circus Circus Cafe, Mt Eden

Circus Circus Cafe is probably an iconic venue of Mt Eden. With its circus tent architectural design and theme, both internally and externally, this cafe/restaurant surely draws the attention of by-passers, both for their food and fun atmosphere.

[Dessert Theory]: Mousse

Mousse is probably my second most favourtie dessert that I'd usually never turn down. Usually, if creme brulee isn't on the dessert menu and mousse is, I'd definitely choose it. If a DILEMMA occurs and BOTH items are on the menu? Well... all I can say is that I'd be trying my hardest to work it all off in the next few weeks. 

Mousse is another dessert that I found to also come in two different forms : light and foamy or firm and dense. I was really eager to find out why they were different and how they came to be.
